The absolute cheapest ski holiday I've ever seen is to drive to a mountain, skin up the ski-out, ride the chairs that don't check tickets, eat food you brought yourself, and sleep in the car in the parking lot. You have to put some work in but it's cheap!
IDK about Poland, but every resort I've been to in the Alps has ticket scanners at every lift. Would work pretty much everywhere else in the world though.
@@Nightmans yeah I've only ridden in Canada in North America, they only checked tickets at the bottom stations there. Same in nz, Australia, and Japan. I've not been to a resort anywhere in the alps that didn't have rfid scanners at the bottom - sometimes even the top - of every chair
I'm Polish and what is really interesting that majority of Polish people always say that skiing in Poland is very expensive and is way more affordable to go to Italy 😂
I'm Italian and I went to the Madonna di Campiglio ski-area before Christmas, we were the only italians in the hotel 🤣 The polish (and Czech) invasion is real and, the best thing about it, it's that you don't even cramp up the slopes because by noon everyone is drinking in a rifugio. Big up the polish gang!
You’re spot on about beginners shouldn’t be skiing in big ski resort. Half the brits in Val D’isere had to take the gondola down because they couldn’t ski La Face de Bellevarde when I was there. Plenty of smaller resorts in France though.
@@marcofurio9380 I mean that’s the point of his comment.., why go to the steepest resort in Alps if you’re not a confident skier? That’s like running 100m with Usain Bolt having never run before
@@marcofurio9380 Of course mate, but as I said there are so many other options within a 30 minute range. Val D’isere isn’t for beginners. People do what they want though, not for me to decide
Just come back from my first ski trip in Val, they’ve just spent millions on crafting the new green beginners area to bring in the people you are trying to put off. The holiday was fantastic, the progression you can have starting on the greens on solaise and working your way to the blues and over the other side is great! I came down la fornet on my fourth day skiing. An excellent place for progression, and the food, entertainment and accommodation is fantastic. People don’t need to ski a black to go to Val, that’s incredibly closed minded
@@willcook1071 Haven’t been there since 2019, so you’re probably right. Obviously it’s a great place considering food, entertainment and partying etc. I don’t necessarily have a problem with beginners skiing there. It’s just that from my point of view many of the skiers struggled with 80-90% of the terrain. You have very limited options as a beginner in Val D’isere (at least in 2019). First timers will have better experiences at smaller resorts imo. The big resorts often have expensive rates. Why’d you want to pay a lot if you’re limited to 10 slopes? Just my opinion. Some big resorts are “easier” as well. Found that my beginner-mates struggled less in La Plagne (and the rest of paradiski) and some places in Chamonix than in Val D’isere. The part between Val D’isere and Tignes is easier as well. If you’re limited to the easiest slopes (green and blue I think?) it’s probably not the best place for you. If you feel confident on red slopes you’ll be fine. I generally don’t pay attention to those signs though. Obviously you don’t have to ski blacks. Heck, some even go to Val D’isere for the 5* hotels and after ski. Ultimately I don’t really care what people spend their money on, I just think people should know how difficult Val D’isere can be.
Thanks so much for this! I had no idea where to go with my 2 sons to try skiing, after getting into skiing about 6 weeks prior! This was perfect and we followed the route you did. Brilliant fun and will definitely be back in the late season! Thank you again for this video, it literally changed our (skiing) lives! 😊
There are German ski-areas I know of, giving away lift passes for free when you book accommodation. Obviously those are the ones with maybe 10 lifts maximum in the Sauerland, Schwarzwald (Black Forest) or right near the Austrian border where the Alps actually start to get height.
Romania is way cheaper too... Several low cost flight providers, a 90 minute direct train from the airport to the ski resorts for 7 euros (or a train/bus from the city), full gear daily rental for 8 euros and a day ski pass for ~45-50 depending on the resort. There are 5 resorts within 1 hour drive (busses and trains are easy to handle) and great hotels and food at various price ranges but all good!
@@MrTj145 i went to Jaworzyna krynicka and really enjoyed it. Theres also a big one on Kasprowy Wierch. Though i must say that Polish ski slopes cant be compared to the Alp ones in terms of size
hey Ben, next time you don't have anyone to go somewhere with, you should take a subscriber with you (if that's something you would think of doing). Youre videos are always creative and interesting, keep it going, always a good watch
I saw a TH-camr taking random people on the street to one of the fanciest restaurants in the world. It would be so cool if you did something like that, taking a random person with you on a trip.
My historically polish family brought shares in this ski resort 30 years ago before it got famous... I now get free skiing here all season as well as free ski rentals... I am English and when I tell people about it they are either shocked or they tell me it must be shite because its not well known since the average person doesn't think of Poland when they think of skiing, but I absolutely love the culture and climate of the area and they are missing out...
Nice video Ben. Has definitely helped me consider alternative ski resorts. A summary at the end of the video with a cost breakdown would have been great
Few points you could’ve mentioned about Tatry SuperSki Lift passes is that when you’re there for few days you can use the pass in other resorts too nearby plus a resort in Slovakia . Also buying lift passes you can buy online and pick up a card and then if you need to top up the pass you can do it online if you register online. Saves you standing in queues... more time to drink and shred the holy hell out of those slopes ;) Some other points Be mindful to keep an eye on half terms as different voivodeships have different winter half term dates. Other than that pretty much nicely done short and sweet review
There's a polish invasion going on in the italian alps, they're everywhere! The best thing about them is that, by 11 or so, everyone is drinking their face off, so the slopes are kinda empty even if the lifts aren't 😂
February 2019 i drove out here from London with 2 friends. It is VERY cheap to ski in Poland, only problem is there wasn't much snow when we went and there wasn't a lot of vegetarian food. Would do it again tho
STRH Art Bistro Cafe is great for veggie and vegan options - I'm here now after watching that video.and was struggling with this same problem, lots of snow right now though!
Ben makes mention that “you don’t want to go to an expensive resort if you can’t board”. And I would whole heartily agree. You spend your first three seasons Learning the basics so why not do it in the cheap
Just regarding the last sequence: i've been skiing until i was 13, afterwards started snowboarding and was only snowboarding for 10years, a few years ago started doing some skiing again(mainly touring). Some years i had like 30days per season on the board. Still, i feel that even 2 beers impact my ability to snowboard more negative, than it does my skiing. Probably because you only have one edge that must be placed exactly at the right spot, unlike skiing where you can correct easier.
Personally I think it's really dangerous to drink before skiing or snowboarding. You can hit 50kmh easily, up to 80 if you have a long board/skis. My dad almost got paralysed once by a drunk skier who drove into him from the back. You're endangering yourself, that's fine, your deal, whatever, but you're endangering others even more. I don't agree with ski drinking culture.
@@elisabethkonig4267 oh my, sorry to hear, new fear unlocked! A lot of people unaware of their surroundings almost crashed into me, it sucks you can't enjoy these sports fully because of those idiots.
Haha peoples faces on the Ski Lift looked like they were pissed drunk already 😂 Which sadly is common in Poland on the slopes at night! Btw, snowpark there opens end of Jan.
Everytime I see a video where someone has to take a plane for going skiing it reminds me in what thankful position I am that I can just get on a train in the morning, ski a whole day, and return home the same day.
I've seen hundreds of travel videos on TH-cam - and you're only the second presenter to indicate that they read on flights! Poland for skiing? I'd try it. Good video.
Greece is relatively cheap as well. The ski resort outside athens is 14euro (student discount, I think 19 normally) and you can hire skies for about 12 - 13 euro.
Hi Ben, i really like your content. Planning to go there someday, can you provide me a few more information such as: 1. Where did you rent the snowboard 2. Link to rent a car 3. The link for the accommodation Cheers from Leeds ✌🏻
Cheapest is always going to depend on where you are. For me it’s the $4 metro ticket up to the local mountain, which is probably as cheap as it’ll realistically get but won’t help much for someone living in another country.
You’re right on the mars bars. Been skiing since age of 3 and we rarely ever stopped for lunch whilst skiing, cba with those prices. First lift up, last lift up. Bottle of water and a few mars bars or snickers is all you need, eat them in ques or lifts. Only exception is the occasional beer
We have a local mountain in Utah called Nordic Valley that have tickets as low as $15! it’s just the smallest in the area but still a decent sized mountain for the price
Białka isn't cheap by any means, and most of the bigger resorts in Poland are this way. I mean the cheap flight and maybe accomodation could make it more affordable but from the perspective of someone living in Poland, the only difference between a week in the Alps and anywhere domestically is the travel costs.
ryanair flights for a tenner from uk to sibiu - 2 hours drive to the mountains sloaps - 10£ / day to rent gear and 20£ a night accommodation - ski pass per 24h is 20£ . Check Straja resort - i reking u would have spend half the amount in romania but Poland is good aswell .
The real way to go cheap skating , get ur skateboard, strip the board down to just wood and the grip tape , drive to Scotland , find the tallest nearest mountain towards u hike to the top where there is a bit of snow , and boom ur basically in the alps!
I am dutch🇳🇱 and we are always going to Tsjechië 🇨🇿. The mountain called Klinovec and had 31km of piste. This place is really cheap, the locals are very nice, food is perfect and the pistes are fine. And when i say it's cheap i ment really cheap. We where with 7 people and ate really good at a restaurant. Everyone had a 3 course menu, a shot on the end and 1liter beer. We payed less than €50 for 7 people😳😂
@@fernandoroberts3591 Let's do some ACTUAL indigenous African countries. Morocco and Egypt would be dope but lets get some BLACK African countries. Not just Arab countries. South Africa, Nigeria, Madagascar, etc.
Been to bialka multiple times, if it's not crowded it is great, specially if you're lucky with the snow. But you missed the absolute best part of bialka, which is the big termas with outside pool right in the side of the slopes
Just back from a super cheap ski holiday in the French alps with 2 others. Came to €285pp including flights, airport parking, a hotel in Marseille city centre for 3 nights (over a weekend too!), a ford puma rental car with fully comprehensive insurance & petrol for all 4 days, buying ski gear in Decathlon, renting ski equipment, ski lift pass, food, everything... literally didn't manage to stand up for more than 6 seconds but worth every cent 😌
Cheapeest place is Morocco ''Oukaimeden'' resort in Atlas mountain... And also in Europe can find some ultra cheap locathion in Calabria south Italy ''Gambarie'' and ''Camigliatello'' resort go check
Yo man, I have a question for you. In about 2 weeks I have a week off but unfortunately friends/family can't go on a ski trip this year (to the Alps). Should I go on my own? I think its better then sitting here in my house, but I am doubting because going alone can be boring i think
@@jeroen965 that totally depends on what you wanna do in your vacation. Sure going solo can be a hazard, like if you get injured you're totally on your own. If you go there to enjoy skiing and enjoy the mountains, going alone will be amazing. Alone, you can do so much more in one day, you can ski at your own pace, no waiting or compromisses where the day trip will go. Especially if you're focussed on the sports factor, you can get more km alone. I went to dolomiti superski last year and skied all day alone, was on the runs for over 8h a day and it never got boring. I dont know if you're also into après ski and going out after, there of course its more fun with friends. When I return from skiing I'm way too tired to go out haha.
@@m.hoffman2889 thanks for you answer. I am thinking about skiing like 3 days. I do like the apres ski. But alone its not that fun i guess but maybe you can have some talks at the bar. But if I go on my own I'll make sure that I can get the earliest lift as possible and make as much km's as possible and choose my own route. But the only problem is that i think that the evenings might be a bit boring (and eating alone)
I'm going winter park CO next week it's bloody $960 dollars for a 5 day ski pass !!!! I hope it lives up to the expectations of Europe to which I normally pay a max of €60 per day
Looks cool!! Definitely in need of another snowboarding holiday. If you haven’t already been borovets Bulgaria is great for beginners. Night life was great and mega cheap.
because of this, im currently looking into going here next month if at all possible. It's been years since ive boarded, but trying to price it up and see if I can get some friends on board

But if I go on my own I'll make sure that I can get the earliest lift as possible and make as much km's as possible and choose my own route. But the only problem is that i think that the evenings might be a bit boring (and eating alone)
@@jeroen965 yea thats true. Usually I have a meal in the evening and watch movies. But I get your point.
@@m.hoffman2889 But thanks for your answers. Still considerating it
I’d happily pay more to ski in Austria where the slopes are a little more challenging, but cool video anyway mate
I'm going winter park CO next week it's bloody $960 dollars for a 5 day ski pass !!!! I hope it lives up to the expectations of Europe to which I normally pay a max of €60 per day
ski pass prices in North America are unbelievable, outrageously expensive !
@@sachadee.6104it was incredibly disappointing too. Won't be returning.
Next time come visit Bulgaria (Borovets Ski), is about 35 euros a day, but the resort is pretty big with high mountains.
Hahaha great video - somehow I knew you were going to Poland 😅😂 but honestly we rather go to Austria because you get better "bang-for-the-buck"
Great to see you in Poland 💪
Absolutely one of your best videos.
Love that your back uploading regularly.
Ben Morris is epic who first? And by the way nice video as always! :D
Thanks!!
:)
Come to bulgaria , it is cheaper. I suggest go to Bezbog(безбог) or Rila Lakes ! The lift pass is 20 Euro and the bed is 15 euro.
I love you cuts they are really nice and have their own style
Yessir and he’s back
Back for good!! I have 3 videos filmed which need to be edited 🚂
Your videos make me happy
Omg he likes it siuuu
I learnt to ski in bansko in Bulgaria. Flight, hotel, skis stick boots and a ski instructor for the week cost, £450
06:30 that’s the most awkward clip I’ve seen so far😭🤣
Keep your knees bent a little more more lol and always bring your personal board you know and love hahah
Ben your mates are always flopping 😭😂 TAKE ME INSTEAD IM UP FOR ANYTHING MATE TRUST ME
Props to the boarders!!
Reminds me of the ski resorts on the East coast USA. You might find a “mountain” like that in Massachusetts or Pennsylvania
Looks cool!! Definitely in need of another snowboarding holiday. If you haven’t already been borovets Bulgaria is great for beginners. Night life was great and mega cheap.
Glad to see you having fun on the trip.
You should visit Gudauri or Svaneti ski resort in Georgia next time. they're amazing
Called the resort by only the title. I love Bialka.
thanks for returning to poland!
nice transition about the nightmares!!
I love watching Ben's videos. 🏂
As someone living at the german austrian border near dozens of ski resorts I could go skiing everyday but here day passes often cost 50-60€
Great video! That chairlift was so beautifully awkward!
So did Ben come up with the video idea first and then get sponsored, or get the sponsorship first and then come up with this idea?
Ben: These are the best goggles
also ben: doesn't wear his goggles most of the time
I woulda come with you. Me killing myself on the slopes woulda given you a bunch more views too 😂
Dis guy is so underated it’s actually incredible
I see you repping the KBL merch. Nice pickup
confidence drink worked a treat haha love it
Great vlog as always Ben. Best wishes
If u put ham with the chips it taste amazing
because of this, im currently looking into going here next month if at all possible. It's been years since ive boarded, but trying to price it up and see if I can get some friends on board
You can skii in Spain for just as much or even less and get much higher mountains
Love the videos man!!
Great video man!
Sierra Nevada in Spain is the cheapest only 2 hours from Malaga airport and ski hire & passes are super cheap
